Is this your playlist or someone else. It might be that the video is restricted.

If you check the mobile link of the second one: m.youtube.com/watch?v=kffacxfA7G4 You'll see under the thumbnail it says "watch later on desktop", So it's not a mobile compatible video. The first one: m.youtube.com/watch?v=_Ghe_b7Y_M8 says "watch video", so it's mobile compatible.

Hi @raveyd (gross intrusion on previous answer...sorry), So how do you determine beforehand that is it mobile compatible?? This is very important to me!! Thanks, Pancho.

That's a good question @Pancho! I don't know. It's an option that the uploader can choose, to de-select mobile viewing ( a lot of big studios use it, like Vevo and 4OD) so there should be a parameter for it, don't know if it's open though. I would check out the youtube api and see what sort of search/sort variables can be used. A lot of variables can be appended to urls and search queries.

Both video work well on the playlist with the Youtube application on my Iphone and iPad, however with BuzzTouch "Youtube Playlist" plugin, they will show on the playlist but one will not download and play. This one works: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Ghe_b7Y_M8&list=PLIIV8GYVolrNhbEKPMT5vDiBfLrqjAyNd This one does not work, will show on the playlist but it will not download: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kffacxfA7G4&list=PLIIV8GYVolrNhbEKPMT5vDiBfLrqjAyNd Still don't know why ?? I had redo screen plugin and build a new one.. and it still not working. Thanks

The second video is not mobile compatible as I posted above. Or to clarify, it's not compatible with the youtube mobile api for third party users such as ourselves, hence the "Watch later on desktop" message. No problems playing in the Youtube Application because it's youtube's app, not a third party..

If I buy this plugin and start to use it on an app that I'm already working on in "design mode", where I've already gotten the source code and compiled it, and put it on my device, will I need to install the plugin, download the source code and compile again, and install on my device again? Or will I be able to just install the plugin and see it working "on the fly"? Is it difficult to get this plugin working, or is there tweaking that will need to be done in XCode after I install the plugin and download the source code?
